Let the Program Work for You
If you want to become a really successful trader, the one that is financially independent, you have to act like a machine, a robot or a platform to achieve it.
Risk and Money Management
One of the integral parts of Forex is risk and money management. You can risk too much money and left to handle a large draw down or a margin call (the worst case scenario). If you want to manage your risk and money, calculate risk versus profits ratio, keep in mind the size of your equity, costs, swap costs, and the probability to win. If you do it manually, by the time you’re finished, the price changes, and you have to do it again for the new price.
Let the system do it because the platform does it well and in 0.1 seconds – you can never beat this speed.
If the old way risk management calculations are not forsaken, you will fail. Don’t simplify it, just hand it over to the machine.
Emotions are out
Fear of loss, greed, joy or any other emotion can Greed, fear of loss and other emotions can affect traders’ decisions and ruin everything in the matter of seconds. It’s yet another valid reason to entrust the platform with the task of money and risk management – computer programs have no emotions, only orders and precision!
